𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : West Indies vs Bangladesh𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : December 08 ,Sunday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 09:30 PM IST𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Warner Park Sporting Complex, Basseterre 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : 1st ODI 2024 After a drawn Test series, West Indies and Bangladesh lock horns across three 50-over games. West Indies vs Bangladesh TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. WI vs BANW Match Prediction & Analysis With the 2025 ICC Champions Trophy just over two months away, plenty of attention is being paid to ODI cricket at the moment. Bangladesh will be competing in the tournament and will fancy their chances on the pitches in Pakistan but unfortunately, after missing out on the 2023 Cricket World Cup, West Indies will not be a part of the competition. But there is still plenty to play for in the host camp! They come into this series off the back of a 2-1 series home win over an experimental England side and will now be looking to beat a full strength Bangladesh outfit. TEAMS PREVIEW West Indies Preview After beating England by 8 wickets in the first and the third ODIs in October and November, West Indies come into this series with a bit of momentum and looking like a team who are building strong foundations in this format. Once again they will be led by the incredibly consistent Shai Hope who is a very calm character and does not seem phased by captaining as well as keeping wicket and he brings his phenomenal ODI average of 49.87 from 125 innings into this match. Alongside Hope, we expect Brandon King, Evin Lewis, Keacy Carty and Sherfane Rutherford to be key with the bat. Bangladesh Preview After losing their last series 2-1 to Afghanistan, one of the eight teams who will be competing alongside Bangladesh in the Champions Trophy next month, the Tigers will be desperate to return to winning ways in this format! Mehidy Hasan Miraz, fast becoming one of their most reliable, consistent and explosive players across all-formats, will once again lead the team. He hit a half-century in their last ODI with the experienced Mahmudullah hitting a run-a-ball 98. With the ball, Shoriful Islam is a skilful new ball bowler and will get swing early on. Mustafizur Rahman brings plenty of experience into this series and has a wide variety of wicket taking deliveries. Weather Conditions According to the forecast, there could be the end of some rain-showers at the scheduled start of the match before clearing. It will be humid throughout with the temperature up at 30 degrees. WI vs BANW Pitch Report The last ODI to be played here was between West Indies and Bangladesh but took place back in 2018! We saw 584 runs scored in that game but the format has moved on and we could well see 640+ runs in total across this match. Expect good pace in the wicket. Toss: To Bat Nine of the last 11 ODIs in Basseterre have been won by the team batting first so we predict that both West Indies and Bangladesh will arrive at the ground wanting to bat first on Sunday.

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Australia Women vs India Women 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : December 08 ,Sunday 𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 05:15 AM IST 𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Allan Border Field, Albion, Australia 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : 2nd ODI 2024 Can India bounce back in the 2nd ODI? Australia Women vs India Women TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. AUSW vs IND-W Match Prediction & Analysis India Women began their tour of Australia with a loss in the first ODI of the series. It was a bowling-dominated game, and batters struggled in both innings. Nevertheless, the hosts managed to chase down the 101-run target with five wickets in hand. In the last series between the two teams, the Aussies beat India at home by 3-0. India Women have won only 1 match in their last 10 encounters against Australia. It doesn’t paint a good picture for the Women in Blue. Harmanpreet Kaur and co. need to find their rhythm with the bat and get their best players to make big contributions in this game. Australia pack a strong overall squad with quality all-rounders who can deliver with both bat and ball. TEAMS PREVIEW Australia Preview Australia Women will be looking to improve their batting returns in this match. Losing 5 wickets on their way to a small target isn’t what the skipper expected. With the likes of Elysse Perry and Beth Mooney at 3 and 4, this Aussie lineup is expected to dominate the opposition. They’ve got all-rounder Annabel Sutherland following at number 5. The middle-order is pretty solid with experience and talent. Tahli McGrath will be hoping for a comeback from the middle-order in the second ODI. The visitors bring in a strong bowling attack and Australia can find themselves on the backfoot if they don’t quickly turn things around. India Preview India Women are up against a quality side that has beaten them in the last 5 consecutive ODIs. The head-to-head stats between the two teams cannot be stressed enough. They tell a story of how the Aussies have dominated India over the years. There was a time when India Women were close to a win at Wankhede last year. However, to beat Australia in their own backyard is an uphill battle for any side. It will take a huge effort from the Women in Blue to bounce back after their recent batting collapse in the opening game of the series. Kaur needs to lead the side with a captain’s knock and will be hoping for support from others like Smriti Mandhana and Harleen Deol in the top 3. Weather Conditions There is a chance of showers in the afternoon of the match day with a high of 32 degrees Celsius. It can affect the game and we might lose a few overs in the worst case scenario but we don’t reckon the match being abandoned. AUSW vs IND-W Pitch Report It looks like a bowling-friendly wicket at the Allan Border Field in Brisbane with a lot on offer for the seamers. The average 1st innings score in the 21 ODIs played at this venue is 205 runs. The hosts lost half their side on their way to a 101-run target. We don’t expect a lot of runs in the 2nd ODI either and it should be another bowling-dominated game. Toss: To Bowl Teams bowling first have won 12 of the 21 ODIs played at this venue. India suffered a huge collapse after opting to bowl first. They did trouble the hosts with the ball and should back their bowlers to put them on top of the game.

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Bangladesh Women vs Ireland Women 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : December 07 ,Saturday 𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 13:30 PM IST 𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Sylhet International Cricket Stadium, Sylhet, Bangladesh 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : 2nd T20I 2024 Bangladesh Women’s challenge to level the series Bangladesh vs Ireland TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. BANW vs IREW Match Prediction & Analysis Bangladesh Women will be under pressure as they take on Ireland Women in the 2nd match of the three-match series. The hosts lost the first game by 12 runs and need to win this game to level the series. Ireland Women will feel confident after their good show in the last game, where they snatched a win from the jaws of defeat. Bangladesh Women enjoys a good record against Ireland Women. The side has won the last four out of five games between the two teams. They know these conditions well, which will be an advantage for the team. As the series hangs in the balance for the Bangladeshis, it will be interesting to see if the team can win here. TEAMS PREVIEW Bangladesh Preview Nigar Sultana will be upset with her team’s loss in the last game. They were in a position of strength in their run chase with a hundred-plus stand from the openers. But a batting collapse in the middle hurt the team. Sultana would like a strong show from her players in this game as they fight to level the series. Dilara Akter and Sobhana Mostary set up a 103-run stand in the last game, and the team expects a similar start from the pair. Nigar Sultana, Sharmin Akhter, and Taj Nehar must build partnerships in the middle order for the team to win. The team also expects a good show in the lower middle order from Shorna Akter and Rit Moni. Ireland Preview Gaby Lewis and her girls will be confident heading into this game. It was a much-needed win for the team after a series of failures on this tour. The skipper led from the front in the last game, and she will be happy with the performance of her bowlers, who held their nerves together. Lewis would like a strong show from her players in this contest. Gaby Lewis batted well in the last game and will look to deliver a good start in this game, along with Amy Hunter. Leah Paul is in good form and will look to build partnerships in the middle order with Orla Prendergast and Laura Delany. Una Raymond-Hoey and Sarah Forbes add firepower to this batting lineup. Orla Prendergast and Ava Canning are experienced bowlers, and the team needs them to strike early to unsettle the Bangladeshis. Arlene Kelly and Freya Sargent must do well in the middle overs, as the batters will take them on. Laura Delany will look to do well in the supporting role with Aimee Maguire. Weather Conditions Sylhet will see clear skies, and we expect to see challenging batting conditions in this game. The wicket is slow, and batters have to play to the merit of the ball. The average first-innings score at this venue is 136 runs, and the team batting first would like to have 160 on the board. BANW vs IREW Pitch Report Sylhet International Cricket Stadium is a good venue for the bowlers, and they have done well here in the past. Fast bowlers do well with the new ball; the spinners also enjoy bowling and have enjoyed success. Batters must stick to the wicket and rotate strikes to do well in this game. Toss: To Bowl The wicket is challenging for batting, and batters have struggled to time the ball in the last few games. Under these circumstances, the side bowling first would have an advantage. Hence, the side winning the toss here would opt to bowl first in the game.

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Australia vs India𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : December 06 ,Friday 𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 09:30 AM IST𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Adelaide Oval, North Adelaide, Australia𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : 2nd Test 2024 India and Australia to fight it out in the pink-ball Test match Australia vs India TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. AUS vs IND Match Prediction & Analysis After the humiliating loss in the first test match by 295 runs, Australia will take on India in the 2nd Test of the 5-match Test series at Adelaide Oval on 6th December 2024. It was an unexpected loss for Australia that shocked the entire cricketing world. Not just the defeat, but the manner in which Australia lost puts some serious questions on their batting. TEAMS PREVIEW Australia Preview How’s that for a stat? Australia have won only one Test Series after being 0-1 down in the first game home and away since 1970. These are not the stats you want to go with, in a very important test series against a very good test team. Add to it the fact that 2024 has been the worst year for Australia batters in a long, long time. In the first test at Perth, Australia’s top four made just 29 runs between them in 8 innings. India Preview A couple of weeks ago, nobody would have anticipated that India would defeat Australia at Perth. India were coming off of a 0-3 loss at home against New Zealand, their first series loss in 12 years. Additionally, they were missing a couple of key batters in Rohit Sharma and Shabman Gill. And yet they managed to defeat Australia by 295 runs. Weather Conditions The weather on the match day at Adelaide Oval might pose a threat to the start of the Test match. It’s good that the start is delayed due to this being a day-night Test, because the weather suggests that there might be some morning thunderstorms. The temperature would range between a high of 30°C and a low of 22°C. From day 2 onwards, the conditions are better for playing a cricket match. AUS vs IND Pitch Report Established way back in 1871, it hosted the first Test match in 1884 between England and Australia. Ever since, it has been one of the premier venues in Australia hosting Test, ODI, and T20 International. The seating capacity at this ground is 53,500 approximately. It is one of the most beautiful cricket grounds globally and a batter’s paradise. It is also the venue in Australia where most of the pink ball tests have been played. Toss: To Bat Adelaide Oval is predominantly a bat first venue. Out of the 63 Tests that have ended in an outright result at this venue, 40 have been won by the teams back in first, while 23 have been won by the teams back in second. First inning totals at this venue are generally on the higher side. The team winning the toss should bat first here.

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : New Zealand vs England 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : December 06 ,Friday 𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 03:30 PM IST 𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Basin Reserve, Wellington, New Zealand 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : 2nd Test 2024 New Zealand’s challenge to level the series after shocking loss Bangladesh Women vs Ireland Women TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. NZ vs ENG Match Prediction & Analysis New Zealand will face a tough challenge as they take on England in the 2nd Test Match of the three-match series. New Zealand had a poor outing in the last game in Christchurch, losing the game by 8 wickets. The Kiwis will look to use the home advantage and level the series as England aims to take an unassailable lead. New Zealand has enjoyed good form in the last few games. They have a strong batting lineup and enjoy a good record at this venue. Despite their win in the last game, England will be up for a strong challenge. It will be interesting to see if New Zealand can level the series or if England seals it with another confident performance. TEAMS PREVIEW New Zealand Preview Tom Latham and his men would have their backs against the wall in this game. The side must overcome its poor show in the last game and work on its basics. The batting lineup struggled in the last game with its consistency. England will come hard on them, and Latham expects a strong show from his key players. Devon Conway failed in the last game and must deliver a steady start with Tom Latham. Kane Williamson’s form is good news for the team, and he must add runs in the middle order with Rachin Ravindra and Daryl Mitchell. Glenn Phillips and Tom Blundell are good lower-order batsmen and must do well. England Preview Ben Stokes’ team was under pressure in the last game against a confident New Zealand. However, the team pulled its weight to register a clinical win. The batting lineup did well, and the bowlers were up to the task. Stokes expects a similar show from his team in this game as they aim for an unassailable lead. Zak Crawley had a poor outing in the last game, and he must improve his show and deliver a steady start with Ben Duckett. Jacob Bethell, Joe Root, and Harry Brook are in good form, making the middle order formidable. The team has depth in the batting and expects a good show from Ollie Pope, Ben Stokes, and Chris Woakes. Weather Conditions We will have clear skies over Wellington, and the conditions will be good for a game. The wicket will be lively, and fast bowlers will enjoy bowling under the clouds. Batsmen have to play to the merit of the ball. The average first-innings score is 318 runs, and the team batting first will be happy to have 400 runs in the first innings. NZ vs ENG Pitch Report The pitch at Basin Reserve, Wellington, has a lot for the fast bowlers early on in the game, and batsmen must be watchful on the first two days. Batsmen who play the waiting game have done well at this venue. There isn’t much on this surface for the spinners, and they must use their variations to succeed. Toss: To Bowl In the last five games, the side bowling first has won three times. The wicket has moisture on the first two days, and batting conditions improve as the game progresses. The side winning the toss will look to take advantage of the conditions and won’t hesitate to bowl first.

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Bangladesh Women vs Ireland Women𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : December 05 ,Thursday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 13:30 PM IST𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium, Chittagong, Bangladesh𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : 1st T20I 2024 Bangladesh Women look to get off to a good start Bangladesh Women vs Ireland Women TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. BANW vs IREW Match Prediction & Analysis Bangladesh Women will take on Ireland Women in the first of three match WT20I series in Sylhet on December 5. The hosts are coming into the series on the back of a magnificent 3-0 series win against the Irish side. Bangladesh would like to extend their winning momentum into the WT20I, while Gaby Lewis led Ireland aim to bounce back in a bid to catch the hosts off-guard. Head-to-Head – The Bangladesh Women vs Ireland Women T20 head-to-head record favours the home side. Bangladesh Women have won eight of the 11 T20Is while Ireland Women have registered three wins. TEAMS PREVIEW Bangladesh Preview These matches will be the first set of T20Is for Bangladesh after the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup 2024, where they won just a solitary game out of their four matches. Despite delivering a stunning performance in Skipper Jyoti’s 100th WT20I and their opening game in WT20 world cup , Bangladesh lost the plot thoroughly, suffering three defeats on the bounce, leading to their exit from the mega event. Ireland Preview Led by Gaby Lewis, the Irish side will be desperate to make a comeback after suffering a 3-0 defeat in the odi series. Talking about the WT20I, Ireland Women are currently placed at the 10th position on ICC Women’s T20I Team Rankings with a rating of 185. However, the Irish side can take confidence from their last WT20I fixture,where they handed a crushing five wickets loss to England women,who sits at no.2 in ICC team rankings. Star all-rounder Orla Prendergast will like to replicate her heroics against England as she scored blistering 52 and 80 runs , claiming player of the series. The Visitors can expect from emerging star Amy Hunter who showed signs of form in the recently concluded ODI Series. Hunter is expected to be the best batter for Ireland Women in the upcoming matches, having scored 934 runs in WT20I in her young career, striking at 111.45 with a highest score of 101* against Zimbabwe. Hunter is also very sharp behind the stumps , making her a substantial player to watch out for in the series. Weather Conditions The temperature at Sylhet during the match hours is expected to be around 26°C and it is going to be a bright and sunny day with the wind blowing at speed of 6 KM/Hr and 72% humidity. BANW vs IREW Pitch Report The Pitch of Sylhet International Cricket Stadium, Sylhet will likely favour batting-friendly conditions. If The batters bid some time initially,they can set a launchpad to put a hefty total on the board.Pacers have ruled the roost here as compared to spin units. Toss: To Bowl 12 matches have been played at this venue,the teams who prefer to chase seem to have the upper hand as they’ve won 7 matches compared to 5 games won by team batting first.

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : South Africa vs Sri Lanka𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : December 05 ,Thursday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 13:30 PM IST 𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Saint George’s Park, Gqeberha, South Africa𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : 2nd Test 2024 Can Sri Lanka put an end to South Africa’s dominance at home? South Africa vs Sri Lanka TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. RSA vs SL Match Prediction & Analysis The second and final Test of the two-match Test series between South Africa and Sri Lanka is about to commence on December 5 at St George’s Park in Gqebera. South Africa have taken an early 1-0 lead and have in the process, bolstered their chances of making it to their maiden WTC final by crushing the visitors by 233 runs in the Durban Test. History was made on that day as South Africa were able to overcome their jinx and register their maiden Test win against Sri Lanka in Durban. While both teams are still in contention for a spot in the WTC final, South Africa appear as strong favorites following their monumental win in the first Test. Head-to-Head Record: South Africa and Sri Lanka share a long yet rich history in Test cricket. In their 31-year-long Test history, South Africa have emerged victorious in 17 out of 32 Tests with Sri Lanka managing to win 9 of them. But in South Africa, the tourists have only managed to win on three occasions since 1998. Furthermore, in their last five Test fixtures, South Africa managed to have the upper hand as well winning 3 out of the last 5 Tests. TEAMS PREVIEW South Africa Preview South African camp would be brewing in confidence after their famous win in Durban. Not only were they able to bury the ghosts of the 2019 Test defeat (which saw them lose the series), but the hosts have now made a statement with that win making them a force to reckon with in the WTC points table. Marco Jansen was simply unplayable in that match and delivered his career-best Test figures of 7/13 & 4/73 to power SA to a crushing win. However, the team has been rocked by injury updates as Coetzee and Mulder have both been ruled out for the rest of the summer. Experts estimate that the teenager Kwena Maphaka may get a go in their absence while the management would also be considering either getting Dane Paterson or Senuran Muthusamy to fill the second vacant spot. Sri Lanka Preview Sri Lanka walked into the series with a lot of promise but their poor show with the bat in the first innings has raised questions about their overall resilience as a unit. The Lankan seamers featuring Kumara and the two Fernandos were breathing fire and caused a lot of headaches to the Proteas batters with the new ball. But when it was their turn to bat, Sri Lanka folded for their lowest-ever Test score of 42-10 with only two batters managing to get to double figures. From that moment, Sri Lanka were playing the catch-up game as SA batted effortlessly in the second innings and mounted a target of 516 which proved way beyond the reach of the visitors. Following their humiliating defeat, Sri Lanka would be forced to make some changes to their lineup. Sadeera Samarawickrama, being a technically astute batter has been a consistent performer for Sri Lanka across all three formats and he could be given a green signal. Weather Conditions We expect partially cloudy weather on all five days of the Test match with little to no rain threat. Temperatures throughout all five days are expected to be at a modest high of 27C but can drop to as low as 19C when the evening approaches. Overall, the weather is going to be warm with wind speed expected to be in the range of 20-35 km/hr. RSA vs SL Pitch Report The lively deck at St George’s Park offers prodigious assistance to the fast bowlers in the form of sharp pace and bounce. Moreover, the ball also has a tendency to nip around off the seam when the ball is new. As the Test match starts progressing to the latter stages, the natural deterioration starts taking effect as the cracks get longer making batting in the fourth innings a very daunting affair. From a batter’s standpoint, the ball will move around quite a bit both in the air and off the pitch and there will be no easy runs on offer for the most part of the Test. Toss: To Bat Teams batting first have a slight edge. Whilst the average first innings score batting first amounts to a healthy 312, the score drops all the way down to 156 in the fourth innings. This highlights the extraordinary difficulty of batting last and keeping this factor in mind, teams should look to bat first and refrain from the possibility of chasing. In the 32 Test matches played at this venue the team batting first won 14 matches, while the team batting second won 13 matches.

GAW vs RGR Match Prediction & Analysis The eighth fixture of the inaugural Global Super T20 league is all set to kick off between Guyana Amazon Warriors and Rangpur Riders at the Providence Stadium in Guyana on December 4. The clash is set to take place at 4:30 AM IST. This is a maiden encounter between two franchises in global franchise cricket. Guyana Warriors would be looking to outclass a weakened Rangpur Riders side who are coming off on the back of two consecutive losses. Guyana are comfortably positioned in the points table and will aim to exert their dominance at the top but Rangpur Riders are at the opposite end of the spectrum completely and will be desperately looking to break from the shackles to earn a win today. TEAMS PREVIEW Guyana Amazon Warriors Preview Guyana Amazon Warriors will be relishing the fact that they will be taking on Rangpur Riders on their home turf. The Warrior Nation have an excellent track record at the Providence Stadium. Being the second-best team in the tournament, Guyana opened their account with an impressive 6-wicket win against Qalandars but went down in their following fixture against Victoria. However, Imran Tahir-led side was quick to get back on their feet winning the very next game against Hampshire by 4 wickets. Rangpur Riders Preview Rangpur Riders have endured a disappointing run so far in this tournament. What looked like an easy win against Hampshire turned out to be an absolute nightmare for the Nurul Hasan-led Rangpur side. Chasing a meager 133, Riders were comfortably placed in the run chase at 120-5 after 17 overs. With 14 needed in the last three overs, Rangpur Riders suffered perhaps the biggest chokes of their life as the game ended in a super over drama. Riders could only manage 12 in the super over and two big hits from Dawson and Fuller sealed the deal for Hampshire as Rangpur Riders went on to lose the game in a very heartbreaking fashion. Weather Conditions The forecast predicts a 20% chance of rain on match day and we could see some possible rain interruptions during the game. Although the temperatures would range between 24C to 29C, the humidity rate is anticipated to be on the higher side in excess of at least 80%. GAW vs RGR Pitch Report The pitch at the Providence Stadium is widely regarded for its slow and low nature. Spinners generally tend to thrive in such conditions and can make the ball talk by extracting a vicious turn. Bearing in mind the slowness of the wicket, chasing in the second half could present a whole new set of challenges for the side batting last. In the seven matches played in the Global Super League at Guyana the average 1st innings score is 141.4 and the games have been low scoring with assistance to spinners in the middle overs and bowlers with express pace and bounce are unplayable. Toss: To Bowl In the seven matches played in the tournament so far teams batting first won four matches, teams batting second won three matches. While the home team Guyana Amazon Warriors won both their matches while chasing and lost one match while batting first. Rangpur Riders lost both their matches while chasing totals. Irrespective of how things have gone both teams have preferred chasing and we predict the team that wins the toss will opt to bowl first.
